hi all sifus, u35jc user reporting here. some sily q if you don't mind
1-I ran the win 7 assessment and managed on score of 4.0 (desktop performance with aero), is it abit too low or expected score? How to make it higher, possible by enabling GPU?
2-how can i manually switch to Nvidia GPU? Not possible?

I am still not familiar with this optimus thingy
Thanks alot...

hi all sifu, i have a u35jc, i can find all drivers on this lovely lappy but seems there's no supported driver for the graphic card (310m), can someone guide me on this?

I downloaded the driver from nvidia website but it's not working, with error message "no device found"

Btw, another silly questions - is optimus only supported with win7, or win xp as well?

Thanks alot!

PS: I need xp because it'es required by my work.

ic, thx alot dude. does this mean that I can only use nvidia GC in xp without optimus, or the GC will not work at all in XP?

Thanks alot again dude, very informative sharing
Seems I have to live on without the GC if i need win xp...

well, more stories, the main reason i want to use xp is that i am not able to use cisco vpn with xp under virtual box, that's the main problem actually. Even by using bridge connection in VB, the VPN always stuck in connecting stage...

but thx anyway, at least u give me a hint and i ve more clues now

that's also possible )

I just restored my previous state of xp in virtual box and the cisco vpn works now! seems i screwed up the previous installation, thx to all, now i can continue to play+work at the same time with my u35jc

I choose this compared to acer 4820tg because it comes with 2 years international warranty, and has 2 more cells vs 6 cells on 4820tg, yet lighter, but graphic card is below par compared to ATI 5650.
